Reviews for Blue Ribbon Brews & BBQ in Norfolk, VA
Great service! Burnt ends were a bit tough but it was near closing, brisket was a tad bit tough but nothing bbq sauce can?t help... with. (The potato salad was honestly the best thing I had) Read more
Had a great experience here last night with my family and friends. We ordered one of their combos and were pleasantly surprised... with the flavor and portions that we received. Each combo is generously served with 2 sides, and we opted for the mac andcheese and fried okra. Both delicious in my opinion even through Okra is not typically something I would care to eat. Smoked BBQchicken and brisket were flavorful, and the cornbread was so good that we ordered an additional portion before leaving. Locationis great for those in the area especially near Norfolk Naval or even the ODU campus. Will be back in the future to try theirburgers. Read more
Tried for the first time today, and was left very dissatisfied. With the exception of the exception of the brisket, EVERYTHING... was subpar from the cornbread to the BBQ sauce.The brisket on the other hand, was not great, no other way to put it. It wastough for brisket, and required cutting in order to eat. I asked if that?s the way the brisket was supposed to be, and theystated it was. So it was not a messed up order, that?s literally the way they make it to be. I didn?t eat much of my brisket,not worth the calories with the taste and texture it had. Very disappointed, will not be return. Read more
Amazing restaurant new to Norfolk. I love bbq and this place definitely does not let you down. I can't believe I ate it all but... it was worth the effort. The smoked flavor is through and through the meat. The corn bread is amazing ... There is nothing Icould say to anyone who is thinking about eating here other than do it... I don't usually give 5 stars but Texas has come toHampton roads!!!! Read more
Good food. Great fries. Big fan of the brisket in particular. Service is great, very friendly staff!
Stopped by here on my lunch break. It used to be Ruby Tuesday so my expectations may have been a little bit higher. It wasn?t... busy in there at the time either. I actually visited on a snow day. I sat at the bar and ordered a burger with fries along witha sweet tea. The sweet tea was good! I forgot to ask for lemon. The burger was OK. My bread was a little hard (not toasted) butjust not fresh. I received my food in a short amount of time so that was cool considering I was on break. I?ve heard from othersthe brisket or bbq is the thing to try. I mean after all, it is in the name lol I would come back and try either of those. I?llupdate my review at that time. Read more
Everything is fantastic here. Platters are my go to. The best brisket, ribs, bbq chicken, pork bbq, fried okra, potato salad,... cornbread, burnt ends and french fries you could ask for! Read more
Tried this place for the first time. For my beverage I ordered a Bloody Mary with warm brisket in it. Amazingly good. I ordered... the traditional burger with Mac and cheese. Burger was juicy and fresh and the Mac and cheese was the BEST I have ever had!! Iwould definitely recommend trying this place if you?re in the mood for BBQ. (The staff was also friendly, attentive and the foodcame out quick) I will definitely be back! ???? Read more
